Who in the world came up with the name 51s for the former Las Vegas Stars? He should be hung by the thumbs.

My Dodger loyalty goes back to when I was 6 years old in 1939 and my father took me to Ebbets Field to see "The Bums" play. In fact, I would rather have the Las Vegas Bums than the 51s. I will never again go to Cashman Field to see a baseball game unless the name of the team is changed. Please pass this on to the management over there. Hopefully they'll listen.
